Does anybody know if SLX hubs can be converted from 12mm to use and old style, thin quick release skewer?

Thanks, that's awesome, I guess this hollow tube thingy fits nicely into the hub and the QR skewer goes straight theoughh the middle and gets locked of as normal, job done...?

Is it a 142mm thru axle? If so can't see something like that working - QR hubs are 135mm.
